The IB side of RoCE requires the MAC table index of the
MAC address used by its QPs.
To obtain the real MAC index, the IB side registers the
MAC (increasing its ref count, and also returning the
real MAC index) during the modify-qp sequence.
This protects against the ETH side deleting or modifying
that MAC table entry while the QP is active.
Note that until the modify-qp command returns success,
the MAC and VLAN information only has "candidate" status.
If the modify-qp succeeds, the "candidate" info is promoted
to the operational MAC/VLAN info for the qp. If the modify fails,
the candidate MAC/VLAN is unregistered, and the old qp info
is preserved.
The patch is a bit complex, because there are multiple qp
transitions where the primary-path information may be
modified: INIT-to-RTR, and SQD-to-SQD.
Similarly for the alternate path information.
Therefore the code must handle cases where path information
has already been entered into the QP context by previous
qp transitions.
For the MAC address, the success logic is as follows:
1. If there was no previous MAC, simply move the candidate
MAC information to the operational information, and reset
the candidate MAC info.
2. If there was a previous MAC, unregister it. Then move
the MAC information from candidate to operational, and
reset the candidate info (as in 1. above).
The MAC address failure logic is the same for all cases:
- Unregister the candidate MAC, and reset the candidate MAC info.
For Vlan registration, the logic is similar.

The GIDs are statically distributed, as follows:
PF: gets 16 GIDs
VFs: Remaining GIDS are divided evenly between VFs activated by the driver.
If the division is not even, lower-numbered VFs get an extra GID.
For an IB interface, the number of gids per guest remains as before: one gid per guest.

For IB transport, the host determines the slave GIDs. For ETH (RoCE),
however, the slave's GID is determined by the IP address that the slave
itself assigns to the ETH device used by RoCE.
In this case, the slave must be able to write its GIDs to the HCA gid table
(at the GID indices that slave "owns").
This commit adds processing for the SET_PORT_GID_TABLE opcode modifier
for the SET_PORT command wrapper (so that slaves may modify their GIDS
for RoCE).

This requires the following modifications:
1. Fix build_mlx4_header to properly fill in the ETH fields
2. Adjust mux and demux QP1 flow to support RoCE.
This commit still assumes only one GID per slave for RoCE.
The commit enabling multiple GIDs is a subsequent commit, and
is done separately because of its complexity.

====================
tipc: simplifications in socket and port layer
After the removal of the tipc native API the relation between
tipc_port and its API types is strictly one-to-one, i.e, the latter
can now only be a socket API. This change opens up for
simplifications both in the code, data and locking structure.
We start with this series, where we ensure that port and socket
structures are co-allocated. Note that the first commit in the
series is unrelated to the above.

As an artefact from the native interface, the message sending functions
in the port takes a port ref as first parameter, and then looks up in
the registry to find the corresponding port pointer. This despite the
fact that the only currently existing caller, tipc_sock, already knows
this pointer.
We change the signature of these functions to take a struct tipc_port*
argument, and remove the redundant lookups.
We also remove an unmotivated extra lookup in the function
socket.c:auto_connect(), and, as the lookup functions tipc_port_deref()
and ref_deref() now become unused, we remove these two functions.

The practice of naming variables in TIPC is inconistent, sometimes
even within the same file.
In this commit we align variable names and declarations within
socket.c, and function and macro names within socket.h. We also
reduce the number of conversion macros to two, in order to make
usage less obsure.
These changes are purely cosmetic.

The three functions tipc_portimportance(), tipc_portunreliable() and
tipc_portunreturnable() and their corresponding tipc_set* functions,
are all grabbing port_lock when accessing the targeted port. This is
unnecessary in the current code, since these calls only are made from
within socket downcalls, already protected by sock_lock.
We remove the redundant locking. Also, since the functions now become
trivial one-liners, we move them to port.h and make them inline.

Due to the original one-to-many relation between port and user API
layers, upcalls to the API have been performed via function pointers,
installed in struct tipc_port at creation. Since this relation now
always is one-to-one, we can instead use ordinary function calls.
We remove the function pointers 'dispatcher' and ´wakeup' from
struct tipc_port, and replace them with calls to the renamed
functions tipc_sk_rcv() and tipc_sk_wakeup().
At the same time we change the name and signature of the functions
tipc_createport() and tipc_deleteport() to reflect their new role
as mere initialization/destruction functions.

After the removal of the tipc native API the relation between
a tipc_port and its API types is strictly one-to-one, i.e, the
latter can now only be a socket API. There is therefore no need
to allocate struct tipc_port and struct sock independently.
In this commit, we aggregate struct tipc_port into struct tipc_sock,
hence saving both CPU cycles and structure complexity.
There are no functional changes in this commit, except for the
elimination of the separate allocation/freeing of tipc_port.
All other changes are just adaptatons to the new data structure.
This commit also opens up for further code simplifications and
code volume reduction, something we will do in later commits.

The field 'peer_name' in struct tipc_sock is redundant, since
this information already is available from tipc_port, to which
tipc_sock has a reference.
We remove the field, and ensure that peer node and peer port

for this purpose.

priv is not instantiated at gfar_of_init() time, when
parsing the DT for info on supported HW queues. Before
the netdev can be allocated, the number of supported
queues must be known. Because the number of supported
queues depends on device type, move the compatibility
checks before netdev allocation. Local vars are used
to hold the operation mode info before netdev allocation.
This fixes the null accesses for priv->.., in gfar_of_init.

The Tx timeout can be triggered with multiple Tx flows,

For the "fsl,etsec2" compatible models the driver currently
supports 8 Tx and Rx DMA rings (aka HW queues). However, there
are only 2 pairs of Rx/Tx interrupt lines, as these controllers
are integrated in low power SoCs with 2 CPUs at most. As a result,
there are at most 2 NAPI instances that have to service multiple
Tx and Rx queues for these devices. This complicates the NAPI
polling routine having to iterate over the mutiple Rx/Tx queues
hooked to the same interrupt lines. And there's also an overhead
at HW level, as the controller needs to service all the 8 Tx rings
in a round robin manner. The combined overhead shows up for multi
parallel Tx flows transmitted by the kernel stack, when the driver
usually starts returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY leading to NETDEV WATCHDOG
Tx timeout triggering if the Tx path is congested for too long.
As an alternative, this patch makes the driver support only one
Tx/Rx DMA ring per NAPI instance (per interrupt group or pair
of Tx/Rx interrupt lines) by default. The simplified single queue
polling routine (gfar_poll_sq) will be the default napi poll routine
for the etsec2 devices too. Some adjustments needed to be made to
link the Tx/Rx HW queues with each NAPI instance (2 in this case).
The gfar_poll_sq() is already successfully used by older SQ_SG_MODE
(single interrupt group) controllers.
This patch fixes Tx timeout triggering under heavy Tx traffic load
(i.e. iperf -c -P 8) for the "fsl,etsec2" (currently the only
MQ_MG_MODE devices). There's also a significant memory footprint
reduction by supporting 2 Rx/Tx DMA rings (at most), instead of 8,
for these devices.
